Radish Tea or beer Sandwiches Recipe

This was listed as a tea sandwich at whatscookingamerica.net, but I had one for a snack last night with a glass of beer! You can also serve these open faced with a sprinkle of salt. My notes are in parentheses.

How to make it

Spread one side of each piece of bread lightly with butter.

Top the buttered side of four slices of bread with the sliced radishes. Top with remaining bread slices, buttered side down.

Cut the crusts from each sandwich with a sharp knife (feed crusts to birds). Cut the sandwiches in half diagonally and then cut in half again. (Yield: four whole sandwiches, eight halves or 16 fourths)

I love radish sandwiches. Back in my early 20's I had a huge love affair with the Frenchman......(shhhh) Anyway, we would often have an appetizer of radish, unsalted butter, a pinch of sea salt, French bread and a glass of Lillet rouge. So good. Thanks for the memory. (one I won't share with Fred) LOL
